Got away for three days at Avila Beach. In the Harbor District section. Can't afford the new campsites on the hill ($240 night with 4 night minimum). Watched the fishermen, strolled the pier, ate at fat Cats, and caught the Falcon 9 missile launch from Vandenberg. (very) used to seeing them close up, but was happy to see a launch from a new perspective... (the missile is just above the crane)

Hanging out at Ozarks RV Resort on Table Rock Lake waiting for the troublemakers aka @NWIP to arrive. Woo hoo... another RVF encounter.

Old park and power runs hot. I couldn't plug my surge protector into the pedestal. Pedestal did not look well taken care of and after having had my reel blown out before, I always plug another surge protector ahead of the reel. SO I got my big girl AutoFormer out which I was able to plug in. I was happy to have it. My power kept cutting out and I saw 153v come through on one line. Eeeks.

Turns out there is a 2nd pedestal at my site. Still running hot between 124v-126v. And no, the AF is not boosting. Also, you definitely need your water pressure regulator. I have an adjustable one and it went to a 100 psi. Evidently, sites at the bottom of the park overlooking the lake have more pressure.

Regarding WIFI, there is no AT&T cell service, but Verizon works great. I got 139 mbps down and 20.9 mbps up and I haven't connected an antenna on the roof to my pepwave yet. Happy travels everyone!

Really nice spot, view wise. And the Beasties look great!
 
Stayed at a small-town Harvest Host in Gainesville, TX last night: Krootz Brewery. This morning we were surprised by the Annual Medal of Honor Honorees parade...it was quite the treat! Bands, military vehicles, bikers, Corvette club, a tractor and an awesome horse. Gotta love a small town parade!

Now THAT’S “made in America “!
 
Another great Harvest Host, Greycliff Mills in MT. This was a old Dutch Barn from Mohawk, NY that was reconstructed here. Lots of additions to this place happening this summer. Raspberry scones are great.

AT&T-fair
T-mobile- non existent
Verizon-?
Satellite-good
Plenty of parking
